I keep reading about folks buying rifles at Walmart but I don't remember seeing any in the ones I have been to. Salem, for example.
Do any of the stores in NW Oregon still have rifles for sale or have they all given in to the anti-gun folks?
Walmart has a bunch of Remingtons on their site but none in any stores near Portland that I know of.I do not believe that guns were ever carried in all Walmart stores. Walmart said back in 2015 that they were shutting down firearms sales in areas where it was no profitable, due to low demand. I believe that they first started to cut back on gun sales in 2007. I would call some of their more rural stores, and see if they carry guns. Call the Walmarts in places like Woodburn, Dallas, Albany, and Lebanon.
Keep in mind that Walmart was put under heavy public relations pressure by numerous gun control groups, who wanted them entirely out of the gun market. The White House even assembled a gun control task force to take advantage of the emotions after the Sandy Hook School massacre. Walmart executives attended a special gun control conference headed by Joe Biden at the White House back in early 2013, where they were lobbied by the Obama Administration to end gun sales:

Yup. They carry them here. I never got one from them because their employees kind of scared me. I wasn't sure they could...Do the paperwork correctly. Lol.Lebanon carries. Got a few from them. None in Salem do, it is just a rural thing.
I always ask the help "Where's the nearest store that does?".. or somesuch.. instead of calling a bunch. Call another WalMart..
